A user guide for implementing Stolt CIII migration and RTM for heterogeneous media: a study and comparison of the difference in resolution provided by these two migration methods - Qiang Fu*, Yanglei Zou, Fang Liu and Arthur B. Weglein

A tutorial on the logic and new math-physics methods development within M-OSRP required to address pressing and prioritized seismic processing challenges.

Topics will include:

1. A comprehensive framework for all the preprocessing and processing methods being developed within M-OSRP

2. Why is the logic behind the ISS methodology so elusive to many- especially to mathematicians, physicists, geophysicists and geologists- in contrast, why is the logic behind indirect methods and model matching so accessible?

3. Why solving a forward problem in an inverse sense ( model matching,AVO, FWI) is not the same as solving an inverse problem directly-and why does it matter?

4. What are the conceptual and practical advantages of solving an inverse problem directly in terms of seismic processing and interpretation objectives- and improving drill success rates?

5. What do all direct inverse methods for structural determination and amplitude analysis communicate on the role of primaries and multiples?

6. What do we consider as the appropriate role for direct and indirect
